Mansfield Harrison, who is now at the Mill
waukee branch of the National Soldiers Home,
is an old time soldier, whose case seems to de-
mand some alteration in the pension laws as
they now exist, to apply to him and others in
similar circumstances. He served two enlist
ments in Co. b, 9th u. s. Inf He was first
discharged in April, 1910, at Fort Hubert, in
Middle Florida, First Lieut.. LangdOn G. EastOn
being in command of the post aud Lieut.. j. Il.
Emory of the company. The second enlistment
ended in June, 1916, when he was discharged
at Fort TowsOn, in the Choctaw Nation, Lieut..
Easton then being in command of the com pany.
As the law now stands, Harrison could not
possibly furnish the necessary proof in case he
applied for pension, and there are probably
many others in the same predicament.

MANKATO, Aug. CIV. II. Anderson
has for two years or more been lead
ing manufacturer of confectionery in
this city. He has for several months
had in his employ the eomely and buxom
fourteen-year-old daughter of Mrs.
Brandenburg, of this city. Last night
great excitement was caused by the
report that Mr.. Anderson hadubeen ar
rested upon complaint of Mrs. Branden-
burg, who had preferred against him
charges of indecent assault upon her
daughter while in his employ. In the
police court, Mr.. Anderson waived eX-
animation and gave bonds to appear be-
fore the grand jury in December. The
case is thought by some to be one of
blackmail. 1t is reported that while
employed by Mr.. Anderson the girl had
complained to him of harsh treatment
received at the hands of her mother, and
had given him information of irregular
conduct which it was in his power to
use in behalf of the girl. This condition
of affairs it is presumed led
to the complaint made, and

suspends his own judgment until Mr..
DOnnelly has said his last word. About
the cypher itself much new information
is given. Its basis, numbers, and its
mOdiferS are disclosed, and it is shown
whence they are derived. Information
is also given as to how the calculations
are made and assurance is made except
ing possible clerical errors, they are cor
rect. Some notion of the labor gone
through by Mr.. Donnelly may be OBJ
tanned from the statement that the slips
of paper on which he has made his cal
culati0nS Che writes fine hand and on
both sides of the Slip when tied up in
bundle, can with difficulty be lifted from
the floor by strong man using one hand.
FOUR ESSENTIAL POINTS
Mr.. Davidson declares that Mr.. DON
nelly still reserves to himself. First
The rule determining the sucf ;SiOn of
the basis numbers. SecOnd-The rule
determining the use of the various mOdi-
fiers. Third-The rule determining the
column or page on which the count i'll
each case is made. Fourth-The rule
determining the starting point of the
count in each case after the page is
settled. These. he admits, are the most
important points to know, since without
them it is utterly impossible to pro-
nOunce any independent Judgment on
the cypher. He quotes, however, from
letter in which Mr.. Donnelly affirmS,
in most positive way, that
everything is conducted according to
fixed and invariable rules of micro
scopic accuracy. Mr.. Donnelly evil
IDENTIFY has made the issue very definite
one. If such rules exist, the cypher is a
reality and the authorship of the plays
settled. And great deal more is true,
for the cypher narrative contains a
whole history of Shakespeare and his
relation to the plays, and of the time in
which he lived. The whole thing reads
like a novel written in vigorous English.
Here is passage from it describing
Elizabeth's treatment of Hayward, au-
thor of the life of Henry ":
Her grace was in a fearful passion. and,
rising up, struck your poor friend with the
steel end of her heavy crutch. The poor
wretch took to his heels, but the ill-tempered
old jade followed him, striking him again
and again Oh the head and the sides of his
body. His health was not coed; his limbs
were weakened with a fever he had had.
His joints gave way under him and he fell to

The San Francisco Wheat Deal
Utterly COllapSes.

Utterly COllapses.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 27.-The an
nouncement was made at 11:30 this
morning that Dresbach u Rosenfeld,
the bull operators in wheat, could not
keep their agreement to accept all the
wheat rendered them, and the call board
was at once adjourned without any
sales being effected This is accepted
as a complete collapse of the wheat
ring, but what effect it will have on the
street is not yet known. The full sig
nificance of the crash will probably not
be known for several days. While
ROsenfeld & Dresbach were supposed
to be acting for John w. Mckay, James
&. Flood and other large stockholders
of the Nevada bank, the deals were all
made in their names and all contracts
were made personally with them with
out any additional guarantees. When
the corner broke on Aug. 3 Dresbach d
Rosanfeld agreed to pay the differ
ence between s2.07 and s2.70 per
GENITAL, or 81 cents per cent. in four
monthly payments, the first payment to
fall due Sept l. The price of wheat fell
steadily to $3.50, but the bull clique was
expected to be able to carry big load,
and announcement was made two days
ago that the first instalment of money
would be paid as agreed. The announce
ment to-day, therefore, that the two big
brokers would repudiate their paper,
was the last straw, was accepted as
final surrender, and illustrated that all
the enormous losses, with the exception
of possibly S2,000,0S0 advanced by the
bull clique early in the DEAL is to fall
upon the brokers and others who had
dealings with these two representatives
of the other men, whose identity has
not been disclosed. There is considera-
BILE excitement on the street, but no fail
ures have yet been reported. ard while
many of the big houses have been hit
very hard, the hope is expressed that
they will be able to pull through. The
feeling is very bitter among dealers, and
the entire deal is spoken of as one of
the worst in the history of trade.

How Mrs. Cleveland Met Her
Husband on Returning From
Marion.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-Probably no
newspaper in the country felt the dearth
of interesting news SO greatly as the
Buffalo paper which published the
statement that Mrs. Cleveland would
not return to Washington at all because
of a personal difficulty with the presi-
dent, her husband. The very next day
the beautiful girl, the devoted, wifely
brittle, the queenly woman who rules
the society of the nations capital, ar
rived in Washington and was welcomed
at the train by the big-hearted, big
bodied, Independent citizen who gave
her the greatest honor man can confer
upon woman, the right to bear his name
and keep his domestic honor. There
never was more atfeetiOnate meeting,
never more demo nstrative wife. AS
soon as the train stopped Mrs. Folsom
descended and was welcomed by her
sOn-in in-law with a kiss. She was fol-
lowed by her daughter, who fell into
the arms of the big Ameri-
can citizen who calls her
wife. She literally fell into
his arms and kissed him long and loud,
then dignifedly walked to the awaiting
carriage with him. They were not OBJ
served by the vulgar crowd any more
than are the ordinary husbands and
wives who meet under similar circnm-
stances. There is nothing less than dd-I
mesticity and affection under the presi-t
dental roof. Mrs. Cleveland believes
as all good wives should, that she haS
drawn the first prize and gotten q
chrome with it. She fairly idOlizes her
husband. She and her mother are now
busy making preparations for the COM,
ing trip to the West, Northwest andl
South. Mrs. Cleveland will be not the
least attraction wherever they go. The
